Got an aunt and uncle that just moved back from texas and the hiyse they bought had some awful colors in it. Told rhem ill help the paint today. They were asking me about paint colors and what type of paint for walls. I said i prefer Kashmir, or eggshell, she said eggshell i dont think i want walls white. I about f---ing died. No aunt Vicky eggshell isnt a color its a type of paint. Lol i took her my fandex, Just pick some colors and ill take care of the rest. She had plastic brushes and a pan. Smh.. Damn amateurs...

It's daybreak here now. It's 60 deg, which feels wonderful. Second cup of coffee, and quiet "me" time. Life is good.

Same. Chatting with you folks on the web is still "quiet time" to me. Not the same as having to actually engage in a conversation. To me it's just different.

Good morning, 70 here and we are just on the edge of the rain that we so desperately need. It will sprinkle for a minute then quit for 10. Grrr. Big change since the spring where we prayed for it to quit raining, now cant buy a drop.

Good morning. It's going up into the mid / high 90's here today, but the air just feels different right now. You can feel a change is coming. Day's are starting to get a little shorter, and the morning temps are starting to dip into the upper 50's. It won't be long until fall is in full swing.

That's awesome! People just don't stay with companies that long anymore. I went to work for this company when I retired from the Navy, and have been with them for 19 years. When I decide to leave, I'll be retired.
